Superman, Spiderman, Batman, La Masa, Los Cuatro Fantásticos, Estela Plateada, Capitán América... todos ellos superhéroes legendarios nacidos bajo los trozos geniales de los artistas americanos. Apreciados por primera vez entre la Gran Depresión y la Segunda Guerra Mundial, dichos héroes urbanos cristalizaron a lo largo de todo el siglo XX los miedos, los excesos pero también los ideales de América. Tras haber combatido el nacionalsocialismo y luego el comunismo, los superhéroes de los años sesenta cuestionarán a una sociedad en plena transformación (Malestar social, miedo nuclear y la guerra de Vietnam). A través de innumerables dibujos, escenas de largometrajes (Superman, Batman, X-Men, Spawn) y dibujos animados, y gracias al testimonio apasionante de múltiples colaboradores (Guionistas, dibujantes, productores, directores y sociólogos) "De SUPERMAN a SPIDERMAN, la aventura de los superhéroes" hace revivir de manera lúdica y ambiciosa la gran aventura de los superhéroes americanos.

Americans are preoccupied with the news, but need an escape from many of the events reported in the news. These escapes in the past have included dime store novels. The most accessible of these escapes is what are known as the funny papers, the set of serialized comic strips that are included within many newspapers. They appeal to all socio-economic classes, and all ages. Some of the earliest known from the late 19th century include the Yellow Kid, Little Nemo, Happy Hooligan, the Katzenjammer Kids, Mutt & Jeff, and Bringing Up Father. Many cartoonists are seen in action. Some originated their characters, while others have taken over following the passing of the originator. The joy of many comic strips are the absurd and the fantastical, which are limited only by the imagination of the cartoonist. Others are grounded in reality, which add to their poignancy within the public mindset.
